Message: [QUOTE="bballtalk, post: 4645191, member: 9837"] That was more than 5 years ago lol. So you should understand what I mean. Which is why im surprised that a lot of Uconn and South Carolina fans are the ones saying “there’s only one basketball” when yall know first hand 1.) Injuries happen, 2.) freshman aren’t always ready year 1. I’ve been a UConn fan much longer than I’ve been following LSU womens basketball. So I understand teams with large amounts of talent. Which is why I think LSU will be fine because Kim Mulkey is used to teams like this. I just think how quickly she’s getting buy in from transfers and recruits is surprising a lot of people. Even with these transfers, UConn and South Carolina still has more 5 stars than LSU. And both have just as many chemistry concerns. The way LSU has allowed their athletes to be themselves and grow their platform has been seen somewhat negative to some people and they’re creating this notion that these players are selfish and won’t be able to play together. When maybe these transfers are seeing that LSU will give them the platform to not only excel at basketball, but also give them opportunities outside of basketball. And I think we should be celebrating these athletes not trying to put them down. UConn has their way off doing things and I love it. So does South Carolina. Its showing that the ways to succeed in womens college basketball are growing and that will only bring more attention to our game. [/QUOTE]
